    Active exchange - English and Mandarin

    Hi all, I'm a native english speaker who's studied mandarin for a few years. I've moved to Hong Kong and really want to improve and practice my mandarin speaking.

    I know everyone's very busy in Hong Kong so I think it'd be good to exchange languages while doing other things, like hiking - I think it makes conversation a bit more natural too.

    I like running, hiking, bouldering, drawing and drinking. So if you're interested get in touch and hopefully we can arrange something.

    Cheers

    Dear Buddy,

    I want to have intense sessions for English training (Academic writing especially as I need to score 8/9) and would you mind helping me?

    We can do a fair exchange, I will teach you intensely many questions regarding to Chinese as long as you can prepare beforehand for an hour and then you will offer yours to me.

    I am a overall "very good user" of English in terms of IELTS however I am relatively stronger in reading but weaker in writing, on average. I am a mother tongue speaker of Mandarin. It's my situation. I speak no Cantonese.

    Let me know how you think!

    Hey tomg8, that's not really what I'm looking for. I don't have time to prep for an hour before each meeting - I think you'd be better off with a tutor.
    good luck
